Please note:  Upper Ngumby is a working vineyard and there will be workers present at times to tend to the vines - for the protection of the vines and safety of guests there is no access to the vineyard or the dam beyond. Please also be aware that occasional noise may occur from bird deterrent devices used within the vineyard. These operate intermittently to protect the crops. Thank you for your understanding.
